Some examples of my work explained here ....... |
|
|
Graphite
Shown here is an example of the use of Pencils when drawing Animals.
To achieve this piece I used several kinds of pencils, using both hard and soft, I find the push up pencils with the really fine lead in them are great for doing hair and the really fine detailed parts of the subject.
I use a smooth paper when using Pencil as it makes it easier to blend and smudge the piece for great effects with shadows and tones. |

|
Chalk Pastels
Shown here in this example is the use of Pastels when drawing Wildlife.
To achieve this piece I used Chalk Pastels and Pastel Pencils for finer detail, I do most of the blending at the beginning when I lay down the foundations for the piece and then build up the detail on top, line by line, when it is finished I use a fixative to hold all the loose chalk particles to the paper.
I use a heavier and slightly textured paper when using Pastels as it adds a bit of definition to the piece. |

Paint -
mixed Media of Water colour, Gouache and Acrylic
Shown here in this example I used different types of Paint to create this Pet Portrait of two cute Yorkshire Terriers.
To achieve this effect I set down the base colours in Water Colour paint as it is easier to move around on the paper and can achieve thinner washes than with other paints, then I built up the detail with Acrylic and Gouache.
I used a heavier paper but not specifically for paints as I didn't intend to use the paint thickly. |
